Summary: Beer! The world's oldest and most popular alcoholic beverage. A favorite of large German men, and young college frat parties, beer is a drink that is appropriate for any occasion. Commonly made from malted barley and hops, beer dates back to Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. In fact, the invention of bread and beer have been credited with humanity's ability to develop and build civilization, especially in locations where the alcohol in beer purified unsafe water supplies. Today there are a variety of beer styles, though the majority of beer falls into three categories based on the behavior of yeast in the fermentation process, these are ales, lagers, and lambic beers. Whatever your favorite style or brand of beer, brewing and drinking beer has gained popularity in recent years and in some circles, beer tasting and brewery tours have become just as popular and fun as wine tasting at vineyards.
